[ANN][BMR] Bitmonero - a new coin based on CryptoNote technology - LAUNCHED

[GreekBitcoin]

I can't help with anything else but I can donate 2000 BMR towards various projects relating to the coin. I hope it helps.

We obviously need GUI, block explorer and a pool. And a logo! After those probably we will be accepted in an exchange easily if someone can help the exchange with the protocol. Maybe you can devide those as a prize for someone. like 500 for a pool 300 for gui 100 for block explorer 50 for a logo... The rest for something else maybe?

I dont have much but i am also considering to pledge a few BMRs...

That would be awesome! Lets hope TFT shows up to setup a bounty list.

For the people on freenode, come join us at #bitmonero, we have a bot running with current hashrate and estimated blocks per day based on hashrate.

Code:

!bmrdiff // !bmrheight // !bmrhash // !bmrcalc

Hi!

I'm ok about renaming. But I'm not ok about proposed hardfork without support of at least 50% of miners. See new OP for comments.

[portalindo]

Sorry for newbie question ...

How do i know that my machine already mining? i'm checking my hashrate still 0.000 but my cpu usage already above 90%.

With set_log 2 i could see comment for MINING PAUSED and MINING RESUMED

Thanks in advanced for someone that willing to reply my stupid question

Luke, I have news from your Father!

Bytecoin needs new super-logo as all coins, so I announce the logo contest.

There is the link to special thread - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=582743!

Logo contest will be ended May, 12 at 00:00. After that our community will vote for favorites (I will create a vote) and a decision will be made in 24 hours.

Reward for winner is 2,000,000 BCN! Today 2 mln BCN is approximately equal to 0.4 BTC.

Ready, steady, go!

Give me the rundown here.

Bytecoin vs Bitmoneros? What's the difference?

Why one over the other?

Hey,

We moved to this thread since TFT's been quiet lately
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=583449.0

Main differences:
- 20kb penalty free block sizes
- 1 minute blocks
- emission time is halved (80% distributed over 4 years)
- emission is via clearnet (80% of ByteCoin was mined in the past two years by persons unknown, it only entered the clearnet last month apparently)
- what is often considered a fair chance to mine the coin (instructions for solo mining, release of linux source and windows binaries at launch)

So far only 0.1% of Monero has been distributed.

Thank you!

I just found out about them today. Looks like something good. I'm all for innovation in the anonymous end.. hopefully I can find a few blocks

- emission is via clearnet (80% of ByteCoin was mined in the past two years by persons unknown, it only entered the clearnet last month apparently)

We don't even know it was two years. Technically all those blocks could have been created in a short time by someone with enough hash power (and it isn't even really that much). The problem with all this lack of transparency is that you really can't trust anything about it.

I call it a ninja premine because for either reason, the name fits. If they mined for two years, then they are good at staying hidden. If they mined in a few days or weeks and then launched with this unverifiable story about a two year history in the deep web, then they are experts in disguise and deception.

Picture that shows how actually public key and ring signature is working! Description really helped me to understand the mechanism of using key and a signature in transactions.   

I've found a new section on CryptoNote website, the standard transaction generation: https://cryptonote.org/inside.php#standard-transaction

A standard CryptoNote transaction is generated by the following sequence covered in the white paper.
Bob decides to spend an output, which was sent to the one-time public key. He needs Extra (1), TxOutNumber (2), and his Account private key (3) to recover his one-time private key (4).
When sending a transaction to Carol, Bob generates its Extra value by random (5). He uses Extra (6), TxOutNumber (7) and Carol's Account public key ( to get her Output public key (9).
In the input Bob hides the link to his output among the foreign keys (10). To prevent double-spending he also packs the Key image, derived from his One-time private key (11).
Finally, Bob signs the transaction, using his One-time private key (12), all the public keys (13) and Key Image (14). He appends the resulting Ring Signature to the end of the transaction (15).

I'm not sure I saw it last time I visited the website.

And a nice pic also:

This doesn't make sense.

There's a Bitmonero, and a Monero both made by different devs?

Can someone please clarify?

Same fork, same dev as the original author.  The community changed the name, but the original author didn't close the thread.
